WHAT QUALITIES MAKE PENN COLLEGE GRADUATES STAND OUT?
Those who understand the value of working as a team, who realize the strengths in others and work together with each others' strengths to achieve a goal will stand out.
WHAT ASPECTS OF YOUR COMPANY ATTRACT OUR STUDENTS AND FUTURE STUDENTS TO JOIN YOUR OPERATION?
Daily, we interact with manufactured items. These items, such as the cereal we eat, the packaging for items delivered to our doorstep, or the vaccines used to keep you healthy, are manufactured using industrial processing equipment. R-V manufactures the process equipment making it possible to make these items. It is exciting to know the equipment we manufacture will be part of someone's daily life.
